Hello there, currently it is impossible for Firefox on Android to disable the "Show search terms instead of URLs" setting that hides the URL when searching through the address bar with the default search engine. How may I disable this? I'd like to always be shown the full URL everywhere.

Hi, I want to disable the "Thought-provoking stories" shortcuts from the home / new tab page on Android.

Following the other forum posts and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/hide-pocket-recommendations-firefox there should be a switch for "Thought-provoking stories" under Settings - Homepage - Shortcuts, but I don't see it. What can I do? Thank you for your help.

I use firefox on my android Fairphone to play podcasts and videos because I don't want to have a zillion more apps and this matches the way I use the net on my laptop anyway.

One thing that bugs me is the notification bell every time I start watching / listening, and then the notification sound when it stops.

I've checked through the android settings (version 13) but I can't find it. Is there a control in Firefox which is causing the notifications?
